ੴ

Raamkalee, Fifth Mehl:

Neither your body nor your mind belong to you.

Attached to Maya, you are entangled in fraud.

You play like a baby lamb.

But suddenly, Death will catch you in its noose. ||1||

Seek the Sanctuary of the Lord's lotus feet, O my mind.

Chant the Name of the Lord, which will be your help and support. As Gurmukh, you shall obtain the true wealth. ||1||Pause||

Your unfinished worldly affairs will never be resolved.

You shall always regret your sexual desire, anger and pride.

You act in corruption in order to survive,

but not even an iota will go along with you, you ignorant fool! ||2||

You practice deception, and you know many tricks;

for the sake of mere shells, you throw dust upon your head.

You never even think of the One who gave you life.

The pain of false greed never leaves you. ||3||

When the Supreme Lord God becomes merciful,

this mind becomes the dust of the feet of the Holy.

With His lotus hands, He has attached us to the hem of His robe.

Nanak merges in the Truest of the True. ||4||41||52||
